Why did you remove my addition to the Stand By Me page?
I don't know how to add references, but in my edit explanation I wrote where the proof is so someone who knows how to add references could add them. Here's further proof of the truth of my addition: https://kenisu3000.blogspot.com/2022/05/encyclopedia-mother-making-mother-tv.html?m=1 On that page, hit Ctrl F and search "stand by me" to find proof of the inspiration. 208.77.56.242 (talk) 23:56, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- A blog is not a WP:RELIABLE SOURCE. Please read the policy. Seasider53 (talk) 00:00, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- It's a translation of an official book, which IS a reliable source. 208.77.56.242 (talk) 00:35, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- That isn't a sufficient reference. Seasider53 (talk) 00:50, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

One City Center (Portland, ME)
As I said in my revertion of your revertion, I go there personally for my chiropractor and I know for a fact that it's the official website of that building so it is not spam. the link is not inappropriate because it is the official current link for the business, not an archive link of a website that no longer exists. There are plenty of examples of Wikipedia pages using the current business's, organization's or building's website. Specifically in Portland, ME, here's the most similar example is Chestnut Street Methodist Church (Portland, Maine). As you can see in the external links section, it's the restaurant's website that's housed there, not an archive website of the church that used to be there. More examples are Porteous, Mitchell and Braun Company Building where it's not an archive of the company but the website of the college that is there now, United States Marine Hospital (Portland, Maine) where it's not an archive of the marine hospital but the website of a completely different hospital (not even a successor) that has a location there, and finally Agora Grand Event Center where it doesn't show an archive of the church but the event company's website that's currently there. I could go on and on but I hope you get the point now. GamerKlim9716 (talk) 14:54, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- It's a commercial link showing rental prices of properties. Please desist. Seasider53 (talk) 15:24, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, it's the company that owns the building but you'll keep reverting my reverts so I give up 🤷♂️ GamerKlim9716 (talk) 15:32, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- If you're going to remove that site, you should also remove the site here in the info box because it's a commercial website showing prices of properties. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Casco?wprov=sfti1# GamerKlim9716 (talk) 15:37, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- If you don't remove the website in the info box for The Casco since it's the exact same thing, the company that owns the building and is a (in your words) "commercial link showing prices of properties", then it's not fair and I'm adding my edit back. GamerKlim9716 (talk) 15:46, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- Problem solved. Seasider53 (talk) 15:49, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- Cool. You should delete the restaurant's (that's housed in the building) website for Chestnut Street Methodist Church (Portland, Maine) since it's a commercial site with prices for food. I can help you find some more Maine historic article's external links to mess up if you would like. GamerKlim9716 (talk) 16:00, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- No need to be salty; it's making you appear as though you've been caught out. Seasider53 (talk) 16:27, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- I agree that I shouldn't be salty. I apologize. I know this isn't the place to say this but I wanted to explain myself. I'm going through a mental health crisis (PTSD) and am not thinking straight and taking out on people unfortunately. GamerKlim9716 (talk) 16:55, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

Mentioning Justin Knapp's ban
Hello, I reverted your changes on Justin Knapp based on prior discussions on the article's talk page, including Talk:Justin Knapp#Block and Talk:Justin Knapp#Extensive block history. I don't think mentioning that he is banned complies with WP:UNDUE and WP:NOR. Let me know if you have further questions, or feel free to open another thread at Talk:Justin Knapp if you believe the curcumstances have changed. Ian P. Tetriss (talk) 01:43, 21 August 2024 (UTC)

You unjustifiably removed my verifiable addition to the Stand By Me (film) page
You claimed an English translation of an official Japanese book was not a legitimate source despite that very book being used as a legitimate source for a lot of information on the Mother (video game) page. Explain yourself. My addition was verifiable with an official source, which you claimed was not valid, and yet elsewhere on Wikipedia that very source is considered valid. 208.77.56.242 (talk) 00:36, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

River Arts District
Thanks. I was afraid of running into the paywall and I had difficulty telling which article was which on the web site. I think ProQuest may have different wording becaise the web site articles are always getting updated.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 23:06, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
Reversion of External Links
Hello, I would like to understand why you considered the reference to two of the most important websites related to John Muir was considered "spam." As I explained in the rationale for adding these sites as External Links for the entry on John Muir, the omission of a link to John Muir Exhibit website seems to be a major oversight, as that site is considered by numerous scholars the largest repository of writings about John Muir, cited by dozens of published books, and even seen by the University of the Pacific John Muir Papers (which is included) as an important resources. Similarly, the link to the John Muir Global Network, a portal to websites featuring Muir around the world, seems too important to omit, given that Wikipedia is intended to incorporate more than just "original" sources but to cite to "what others are saying about the topic" at hand, in this case John Muir. These are not just some random sites, but rather sites that have been devoted the the topic for many decades, and frequently referenced in scholarly articles. Thanks.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Hadlock Field. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Points to note:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. User:Namiba 19:08, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
Review your Edit
you should review your last edit in the Kabaddi page. proper citation included. Tamil Selvan34 (talk) 05:57, 13 October 2024 (UTC)
- I share the same concerns regarding the quality (and apparent activism) behind this user’s edits. I am similarly concerned with this user’s consistent disregard for citing source materials. This user appear to be a non-native speaker of English, with more enthusiasm than their intelligence can extend to. 75.161.56.205 (talk) 20:41, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
- I reported them, but there was a backlog that day, so the request was deleted by a bot. Will report again if needed. Seasider53 (talk) 20:43, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
